What I'm looking for

I seek a role that allows me to leverage my language skills and contribute to educational initiatives.

My name is Mohammad Qasim Odeh, a dedicated professional with extensive experience in language interpretation and training. I have been an IELTS trainer in Malaysia since 2003, where I have built a substantial following of around 40,000 on social media, primarily among the Arab community. My passion for education and language has driven me to excel in my field, and I take pride in helping students achieve their language proficiency goals.

In addition to my training experience, I have over 14 years of expertise in simultaneous and consecutive interpretation. I have worked with various international organizations, including Asia Pacific, Maven International, and Sapian International, providing high-quality interpretation services across different contexts. Currently, I am pursuing a PhD in Public Administration, focusing on the performance of the Palestinian public health sector, which reflects my commitment to contributing positively to society through my work.
